This message is simply to say thanks to everyone here for making this place so great. A lot of people say this is the best boating site on the web; I am thinking it might be the best one, period. I don’t spend a lot of time on forums other than C-Brats. Maybe it is the memory of being kicked off of the first one I ever joined, but I think it has to do with how spoiled I am by the folks here.
I have tried to be a little more outgoing and expand my interaction with people who share my interests but I never seem to fit in anywhere else. With the help of a regional fishing group I long ago found I am not smart enough to catch any real fish, so I don’t visit those guys much anymore. I recently signed onto a forum for owners of a particular car model and I find myself wishing I could edit their front page to add the Just Be Nice admonition. What a bunch of – or more correctly, within the group there is a very vocal bunch of – arrogant people who are so much smarter than all the others. I am afraid to ask a question because if it is addressed in the owner’s manual and I failed to look or somehow missed it I will be vilified. And if a word is spelled incorrectly or a fact misstated – whoa, look out.
So thank you all very much. Carry on.
I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas and are soon to start a fantastic New Year.
Mike
